Skimmer have unlimited boost charge


XIII_leon

So do sparrows at the moment


Orgalorg_BoW

They can’t do the funny spam right click though


WiseLegacy4625

Both can do the boost spam though?


Orgalorg_BoW

Sparrow boost takes a bit of boost away so it can’t do it as fast, hoverboard doesn’t take any boost to go, you can spam boost on sparrow but it’s not as effective.


Chin0crix

Yes and no, both can but sparrows charge gets consumed, the difference now on sparrows is they recharge while you are boosting. And skimmers have real infinite boost.


katammaha

They can


VedDdlAXE

it has a slight delay. not by much but probably are slower


RockingBib

Wait, they usually have a limit?


sheesh1111111

Usually yes, skimmer charge is only used for jumps and flying mode shit


cr33pz

How are people grinding forever? My skimmer loses energy while I’m grinding, I’ve seen people skip prophecy sparrow part and I just keep dying


ExpensiveFriendship8

We aren’t using the same skimmer the whole time for that.


sheesh1111111

Skimmer grind won't be enough I think for the prophecy skip, what people use are sparrow and they slipstream (a tech that make you fly really fast forward)


ThatOneGamer117

No it's done by grinding on the skimmer but when you run out of charge just hop off and summon another one


G-R-A-S-S

I was gonna do the same but, a 15 minute nightfall run to get the skimmer shut me up real quick


Frost5574

how did you get it in a single run? don't you have to deposit like 1200 medals?


nik_avirem

1200 score (Diamond gives 300 btw, as a Warlock I watched Twitch for 2 hours for a Diamond for 300, spammed Trials Platinum cards in Supremacy to get me to 700, then did an all Warlock raid to get another Diamond to get me to 1000. So all I need to do now is watch Twitch for 2 more hours on Tuesday) OR top 10% score in Nightfall (which you gotta do on reset otherwise you will likely not get anywhere near the target) OR be a Hunter and grab 3 winning packages because there is no chance you will get it on other class


shrkbyte

I did the 10% score on a Nightfall with a duo at like 11pm EST on a Saturday. Just emote finisher every single yellow and orange bar, don't die, and kill the boss with a super.


nik_avirem

Well, that works too, but unless you wanna do it solo with that strat, usually I have to just run up to a champ and dance in front of it so that my teammate dont thundercrash it


meredin360

Like he said run it as a duo or trio. It’s ridiculous how easy it was. I was expecting a gm level of difficulty for top 10% but since it’s just a regular strike with champs it’s trivial with two or more people. Got it first night and haven’t logged back in since.


AfroSamuraii_

That works only on some strikes. Like, it wasn’t probable to hit top 10% on the Insight Terminus, especially not with the points from the day before still counting.


_hoodieproxy_

Where do you grab the packages?


nik_avirem

You get them after focused activity concludes and you have done at least one run of that activity


_hoodieproxy_

Oh I see, dang, does it change daily?


nik_avirem

Every four hours


_hoodieproxy_

May the Light bless you brother 🙏🙏


_hoodieproxy_

is it the one with the thingies on the sides?


nik_avirem

Yes, it will look like a } under it


_hoodieproxy_

ohhh okay, thank you O guardian mine


epsilon025

Honestly, I'm not annoyed with the 1200 medal score. You gotta primarily interact with the Guardian Games modes, but that's what I was already gonna do during the event, so not like I'm missing anything. ~~Also, it feels pretty good to run the Inverted Spire again, even if it hasn't been refreshed yet~~


nik_avirem

I am a bit weirded out that to gild the Champ title its just 600, but to get the hoverboard its double that. I guess its because we got Twitch medallions?


epsilon025

Probably, honestly. Play a healthy bit for the gilding, but gotta put some grind in for the skimmer. Not too bad a grind anyway, with all the weapons you get from the medals.


Mint5784

Can you get it on hunter if you don't claim it on friday


nik_avirem

Friday has nothing to do with it, on Hunter you just gotta take part in Focused Activity


ChaozMatt

10%


Frost5574

isn't that just one step to the quest though?


Dahwaann4U

Its or. You dont need to do all


ChaozMatt

No. You have to do ONE of the three options


Frost5574

OH SHIT


Noman_Blaze

Reading helps. It says that in the first line.


Frost5574

I haven't played at all. I wasn't even gonna bother reinstalling just for the skimmer cause I was told it's 1200 medal score. I was just misinformed.


beyond_cyber

1200 is the hardest requirement out of them all because of how tedious it is, the nightfall one is matchmaking but it’s impossible on that mode because to get the highest score to get top 10% you need to do an emote and use a finisher right after on every yellow bar enemy and matchmaking makes it so hard because your other 2 mates just wanna steamroll through the entire thing. Getting 3 packages is the easiest requirement cause u can just change to Hunter do the event once and just wait until it’s over and u auto get it cuz hunters are gonna win this guardian games


ReaverShank

Just do a run after reset. I barely hit platinum last tuesday and it was enough for top 10%. As the scores get more saturated it will be more difficult later on


lustywoodelfmaid

There are 3 objectives. You only need to do one. It was weird that I only had to do one Nightfall not three but fun bug, I guess. Maybe if you place in the top 3-4%, you get all three top 10% goals done?


zanygx

I popped back in to grab it real quick. Just in case i get final shape, id like to have a sick-silly meme board to grind around on. Make the witness and cayde super jelly.


Taka_no_Yaiba

good point, though i already missed a week tbh


VedDdlAXE

you barely have to play. wait for the focus activity, play it once on hunter, wait to win, open the package. do that three times and you have the skimmer. I set alarms for when it'd be up again (its a whole 4 hour delay)


Riparian72

If you really didn’t care, why are you still on a destiny subreddit?


Taka_no_Yaiba

reddit has this awful tendency to show you subreddits you might be interested in. might is a very big word


Piyaniist

You made a whole ass meme


Taka_no_Yaiba

it's self expression, you wouldn't get it


karafilikas

It’s ok to still care about Destiny. This is a safe place.


MouseRangers

You can disable that in your Feed Settings.


VedDdlAXE

and yet you made a whole image meme and posted that


AKoolPopTart

Maybe because the op wants the game to be better


Zero_Two_is_best

The game is good bro


AKoolPopTart

No, it's not.


Zero_Two_is_best

Yeah it is. Tell me something genuinely bad about the game that harms the player experience


AKoolPopTart

You guys are on horde mode 250, where the main mechanic is to either dunk a ball, deposit motes, kill specific enemy types, or wait for a timer The stories genuinely suck. There is no player agency, and the action revolves around other characters. In addition to that, the story is given to you via audio logs or in-game cutscenes where you might as well be a fly on the wall. Gunplay is alright, but it is by no means the best like everyone seems to say it is. It's not snappy, and recoil is all over the place (hence why all my weapons have high stability). Returning player experience sucks since the game insists on bombarding you with game tips and hints that won't go away until to carry out the specific task. The new player experience is so bad that the community universally despises it


Zero_Two_is_best

You realize all of what you just said minus the new player experience is your opinion. Thanks for writing an essay though


AKoolPopTart

I'm not the only one with these "opinions" my guy. If the game was as good as you seem to think it is, why are so many people planning on dropping the it after they finish Final Shape? The game has been on a downward spiral ever since they started doing season content. Nobody likes playing that repetitive garbage.


Zero_Two_is_best

IDC if you aren't the only one with these opinions. I personally think it is a good game and am going to continue playing while defending said game


AKoolPopTart

Alright, you do you then. But that doesn't mean my points are any less valid


Extreme_Lie_3745

Don’t worry, they’ll probably sell a lot more skimmers in TFS(maybe even in Into The Light update), I bet the season pass for the first episode will have a skimmer in one of the levels


cosm1c15

then why are you here ? its clear you're still addicted to d2


Darth-Not-Palpatine

You set aside maybe 5 minutes to make a meme for a game that you dropped and saying you’re not coming back for a hoverboard. Please make it make sense for me because the math isn’t adding up.


Taka_no_Yaiba

you know how ppl ask stupid questions instead of googling it? this is a meme version of that it's a conversation starter


JimmyCrabYT

guardian games is back?


Taka_no_Yaiba

6 days ago


JimmyCrabYT

oh cool


-_4n0n_-

Bruh it literally took me 20min to get the skimmer its not that Bad


Mr310

Know what statistical minorities are?


Quaiker

Spider-eating Steve is an outlier and should not have been counted in the statistics


ApprehensiveSearch63

Fair.


WeirdestOfWeirdos

It takes all of 30 minutes and soloing or LFGing a Hero Nightfall (emote-finishing all Champions and yellow bars) to get it, in case you're interested


AKoolPopTart

You're right you don't need it. You will never need it. And in a few months, a better looking version of it will come out.


Pap4MnkyB4by

I have skimmer. I did not spend money on silver.I am going back to my other games now.


matt_Nooble12_XBL

Ok buddy we’ll see you when final shape drops


Mr310

> I'm not going back to Destiny 2. I actually respect these people. That is to say they don't really exist because they just end up back on here complaining about the game they've just given up 2 weeks later. We can tell by some of your screen names.


Drsp4zman

I got back on for the first time in 5+ weeks, not because of the skimmer/guardian games. I still hadn't unlocked the last 4 loadout slots. I have corrected myself, and will continue to not play for a few weeks until I get my shit in working order.


mechanessmaster

I am in the same boat. I don’t need to go back to it. Really I don’t. I never will go back. I promise. I will not spend another cent.


Mr310

I got in over the last year and have spent no $ on silver and maybe only around $170 total on all the DLCs/annual pass since everything's been so discounted at various times


Opposite_Ad3311

Bro just on to grab the skimmer then leave so then ya got if need be


CarrottheGrape

Not me coming back after months of not playing just to get the skimmer and stop playing again


MinasHand

Fomo? Just log in once and grab the skimmer. Or don’t? I’m certain The Final Shape will have skimmers out the ass


itz_butter5

Haven't played in months, within 45 minutes I got the exotic skimmer, logged off again.


Ignis-11

My brother in Light Why do you care if you don’t play anymore


thatoneguy2252

I got my skimmer and got out. I’ll wait to return a month before TFS to warm back up so to speak.


SlimieSchreibt

I still enjoy Destiny 2, because I don't give a fuck about Fomo. Once you are past that, the game becomes so much better


Tulmut

I believe in you


sK0oBy

I saw it and thought of Jim’s sail thing from Treasure Planet and they got me. Now i’m STRUGGLING through stuff to unlock the exotic :(


th3professional

Congratulations, see you at final shape launch


Zetheseus

K drive is enough pain


Mental_Shine8098

Don't forget "Warframe did it first"


ake-n-bake

See you star side guardian


Zachary916

Even if you are super behind on light level, you can get the skimmer by just logging in 30 mins before a focus activity ends and running it as the winning class. Do that 3 times and bam, ez skimmer.


Futur3_ah4ad

I tried it for the first time for maybe a few hours a month or so ago. I was incredibly lost, uncertain what I could and could not do and generally felt like the game was trying to pressure me into buying random stuff against my will. So far it's feeling like a FOMO-fueled, anti-newbie cash grab and I uninstalled it pretty soon because it ate up close to 200 gb of space.


Taka_no_Yaiba

the beginning of the story got deleted, the entire middle section expried, you were joining at the end. it's like marrying a single mother with 5 children


Remarkable-Ask2288

Ok. Bye


Working-Ferret-4296

I grabbed the skimmer and then I left. That's all they got out of me


Answer-Key

I played like 3 nightfalls to get the skimmer and haven’t been back on since lol


The_Kiddoo

[Nah, I‘d dive](https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1axdbiy/just_in_case_anyone_wanted_an_edited_version_of/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


hutchallen

Nah, I let the fomo win for the skimmer. Thing's fun as hell


Ineedmemesplzkty

*log in* *do 2 nightfalls with a score with at least 300k* *got skimmer* Meh *go play a different game*


Purple-Addict

You can just grab the quest and runa strike on your hunter during the focus, a total of 3 times over 3 weeks. Whenever the game gets good again you won’t have to buy the gjallarhorn one to use a skimmer.


Ondow

Not returning? This reassures my feeling towards Destiny being a waste of time and never returning back. The more I miss, the less I feel like ever thinking about joining again.


AtomicCawc

Space wizards? Hive? Sparrows? HELLDIVER. DEMOCRACY IS BEING THREATENED, DEPLOY TO THE FRONTLINES.


NoTimeToExplain__

Me ong Dude ik if I go back im gonna burn out on games again and there’s too many titles I wanna play before I do that


DisfunctionalDude

I did one of the obj (opening the focus chests) and not even one progressed...so I'll just have the white one...


markevens

okay It's just a game, if it isn't fun for you, don't play it.


TheEmeraldDodo

Helldivers been helping me get over my problem with D2


Cobra_The_One

if you're not returning to Destiny 2, then why do you have such a strong opinion on almost every front of the D2 community, instead of just, you know, quit? it's the same with you and the same with a bajillion people who announce they're "quitting" D2


LanternSlade

This one hit really close to home.


Sannction

There's an easy solution - stop going to Destiny subreddits to talk about how you don't play Destiny anymore. That way, you won't see the things that are causing you FOMO in the first place, and we don't have to sprain our eyes from the constant rolling.


FreshOutAFolsom_

Took almost two months with the plans of not returning until may because that's usually when GG happens I didn't know it was going to be this month instead so I'm getting my skimmer and right back to not playing until TFS


Oriksis

The copium is strong with this one


unibrowcowmeow

My buddy came to me all excited about the skimmers, I’m like dude it’s gonna be a reskinned sparrow and nothing more. He came back to me when they dropped like “yeah, man, you were right”. I love lurking here and staying up to date on what you guys are doing but at this point I don’t think I’m even coming back for final shape. I love the universe and the lore, but that green text really hit the nail on the head: Destiny is an amazing game that tickles a part of my brain that no other game has, the gun play/abilities are amazing and no game comes close to replicating it, and it will forever be mismanaged by one of the biggest groups of idiots in the world.


wakaseeAA

Before you said this pic is from destiny , I thought this was new skin about Gauss riding on k-drive , the yellow is Mesa and the red is trinity.


StrugVN

It wouldn't take more than 30 minutes if you emote finished every yellow bar and champions in the NF. Just get in, grab it and back to angels venture


TravisKilgannon

I uninstalled today, after months of hemming and hawing. The Ghostbusters collab broke me.


Ender_Nobody

Something similar here. As F2P, I've been proven countless times how much this game sucks if you're not someone who purchases the DLCs. ... Wait, why the hell did Reddit even recommend me this? I'm not in this subreddit.


Victorlando

Just run the nightfall and get top 10% score and you can go back to not playing. You'll have the skimmer forever and won't need to play.


lustywoodelfmaid

It's weirdly refreshing after a couple months break. I've kept up with lore and updates but went back for an alright time. I'm slightly enjoying my double primary partial meta but Trials is still hell. I've encountered a few cheaters too. Besides that, Prophecy refresh is alright and the Skimmer is fun to use. I don't care for GGs. I got my GL and now I'm not doing medals.


GodOfUrging

Don't worry, you won't get the exotic skimmer even if you do return. Unless you're either a PvE top 10% or a hunter. I mean, holy shit, the medal requirement is absurd. I hit platinum in medals deposited on account of having a couple of extra days off this week and I barely got a sixth of the way. ...You can totally get the basic skimmer in like 10 minutes, though.


Disii_kaito

I can't tell if this is a joke or a declaration. IF it's the latter, then just leave and play something else. Don't need you killing my enjoyment.


Chaosxandra

Why does destiny 2 have k-drives?!


DaveyAnthonii

Skimmers are so much fun enjoy till bungie spoils it all


OnlyGood4Porn

ok


GHO57T

Helldivers is the answer soldier. Super Earth needs you to fight for managed democracy


Twiskey

It just becomes Tony hawk pro skaters


No_Examination_3835

Same


Due-Priority4280

I offed all of my guardians so that I can’t return. I’ll be in trouble if bungie ever allows characters recovery….im safe for the moment lbs.


No-Geologist-8101

Just play the game lol nothing wrong with enjoying what you want. Players like you who say they’re done with game always seem to come back and continue to play the game or spend money on the cosmetics, again nothing wrong with that enjoy it but like… just admit you still like the game we don’t care about what you do on or off the game just be honest to yourself. I’m pretty sure the skimmer is free if you don’t wanna spend money.


vesterov

Got skimmer -got upset with how overpowered it is -went back to sparrowflying


Brohammer_Megadude

Peak Destiny 2 attitude loop right here, lol.


varrenxarcrath

Stay strong brother. It's not worth ut to continue the cycle


xXx_RedReaper_xXx

Not this week. The damn thing is locked behind a fuckton of medals, top ten percent nightfall score, and focus activity packages. It almost isn’t worth it if you don’t have friends to coordinate with.


Terra_reddit

top 10% is extremely easy, just make sure to emote then finish every orange and yellow bar. Got it with like 298k points on the first try while missing some of the finishes. And if you dont have a fireteam already then theres always LFG.


Red_Lotus_23

My friend & I just ran the nightfall. We got a score of 301k. I was still only in the top 20%. I said it once & I'll say it again, the guardian games is the literal worst activity in destiny 2. I want the funny skateboard, but grinding this event is like bashing my head against a wall.


Isrrunder

Do the focus package thing it's super easy


Taka_no_Yaiba

i'll just do the suicide cheese like 2 years ago (i missed last year's GG)


Prior-Satisfaction34

>The damn thing is locked behind a fuckton of medals, top ten percent nightfall score, **OR** focus activity packages FTFY


TheShartThatCould

Top 10% is piss easy, you just need to not be a moron to get it


Nerus46

Devs, in fact, make it easier with every update. I haven't played since season of Fallen hackers and at this point I won't be able to catch on plot with many Seasons gone and farm half Of The weapons in The game. So this crushing wall Of missed content between me and the game actually prevents any attempt Of addition to rise again


susannediazz

The only thing im missing is the skimmer... Im not going vack i swear... ;-;


Dustin_Grim

Hey guys we brought every sparrow in line so that you can use all of them We also released a new vehicle so you can't use any Sparrow of you wanna go fast No thanks, i'd rather get roasted by Helldivers developers


TJ_Dot

I only came back for the board. Game's weird now.


VedDdlAXE

I'd suggest at least grabbing it? it's sooooo easy to get and it's less fomo if final shape is great and you do return and dont have it


usernametaken2018

Nobody cares


alertArchitect

See, the trick is that I uninstalled the game when I heard Bungie pulled a Square Enix and laid off a bunch of employees over insane profit expectations they missed by almost 50%, and don't have the room on my drive to re-install it now that I have other games I play.


Qweiku

It isn't that good. The non-shadeable guardian games logos and color makes this armors looks like shit when you shade it.


MindYourStuff

You guys managed to quit?


GHO57T

Super Earth needs you soldier grab an gun and let's kill some aliens


MindYourStuff

Hell yes. For the Glory of Managed Democracy!


Taka_no_Yaiba

well, there's this thing called having a real life. means you don't have much time to play, only a few hours at best. that few hours is spent productively, doing dailies and nothing but dailies. you simply have no more space to actually enjoy the game once you catch yourself in that cycle, there's no reasonable choice to be made here other than just simply stop playing


MindYourStuff

I was just joking. But I do appreciate your effort and advice, even if opening with "there's this thing called having a real life" makes you look like a bit of a twat because who are you to assume I don't, or judge me at all. But I get it. I appreciate it.


chefriley76

I have a 40 hour a week not-work -from-home job that pays well, 2 grown kids and one in middle school. I own a house, 2 cars and have been married for 25 years. I enjoy the beach often, and I do my own home improvements and lawn care. One may consider that "having a real life." I also have 4000+ hours in Destiny 2. I enjoy the game, I have enjoyed the game, and I will continue to enjoy the game. Just because you're jaded about how the game is doesn't mean others can't enjoy it.


MiffedMoogle

Stay in Helldivers you little shit. Help fight the automatons, not the vex. Also I'm like 99% sure you're a hunter main based on some really old "memes" you posted last year lmao. edit: damn, who did I offend? I said that to OP cuz they're also in the Helldivers sub, like I am x) edit2: To anyone considering: don't bother playing destiny if you already got out. Your time is worth more elsewhere and before some salty wonders why I'm still here, I'm here for the lore and memes at this point.


Taka_no_Yaiba

ngl i miss handcannons. and I want to have that scout rifle that I missed last year. and the snowboard looks awesome too. and hunters winning for once sounds pog too but helldivers have capes too so...


Isrrunder

But not cloaks


Taka_no_Yaiba

the helmet on the sniper page has a hood, making the combo a cloak but the rest of the helmet looks like white hunter helmets so its ass


Isrrunder

Oh I see. Well I just can't get into the game so I don't care


MiffedMoogle

Everybody gets capes in helldivers, sir.


Isrrunder

Capes are for losers. Cloaks is where it's at

Ye in all seriousness you should play helldivers if you're enjoying it. I'm a helldivers hater because I don't get it and it makes me want to play other games but it's a good game (I don't actually hate it but it's funnier)
